- Disable lock elision support for Intel hardware until microcode
updates can be done in early bootup (#1146967).
- Fix building test tst-strtod-round for ARM.
There was no rationale given for the change to fix bz#737223 and the
fix was never even proposed upstream. This patch causes a test
failure in the glibc testsuite. Revert the patch for now and do a
proper documented analysis if this actually results in any kind of
failure.
build-locale-archive was switched to link dynamically in 538b3c08
without giving a proper reason for it. The earlier static build was
wrong though, since it would happen against the installed glibc and
not the glibc being built. The dynamic link was also similarly wrong,
more so because it would build against the built libc.so.6 and then
try to load the system libc.so.6. This results in a failure in %post
in cases when the new build-locale-archive may have symbol references
that are not present in the old glibc.
There seem to be no good reason to run build-locale-archive with the
system libc.so.6, so the change is now reverted with a fixed up static
link that links against the build static libc.a.
- Allow up to 32 dlopened modules to use static TLS (#1124987).
- Run glibc tests in %%check section of RPM spec file.
- Do not run tests with `-k` and fail if any test fails to build.
in order to work around GCC reordering compares across the TLS
descriptor sequence (GCC PR61545.) Committing a (temporary) fix here
allows us to avoid rebuilding the world with gcc 4.9.0-11.fc21.
Following commit upstream removed the definition for elfobjdir in
favour of elf-objpfx. Adjust rtkaio to build with this.

Consistently use $(elf-objpfx).
As previously noted
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-05/msg00696.html>,
$(elf-objpfx) and $(elfobjdir) are redundant and should be
consolidated. This patch consolidates on $(elf-objpfx) (for
consistency with $(csu-objpfx)), also changing direct uses of
$(common-objpfx)elf/ to use $(elf-objpfx).
After each test run we output all of the test results
to the build logs. This includes PASS, FAIL, XPASS,
XFAIL results and the original error codes of the tests.
Without this fix the new upstream PASS/FAIL support
hides the test results from the build logs.
Currently the nscd service is installed in systemd as a simple
service, which means that it is able to handle its own errors and does
not quit. Since nscd does not fit that description, i.e. it can exit
on errors like, say, failing to parse nscd.conf, it should be declared
as forking instead.
The call to open_tmpl_archive was being passed a pointer to an
object allocated on the stack. The object on the stack is not
guaranteed to be initialized to zero so we need to minimally
initialize `fname' in the struct locarhandle to ensure that
open_tml_archive loads the default tempalte.
This error was seen while debugging glibc installs in a qemu
VM where it is more likely the stack pages were dirty. It has
not been reported on non-VM systems.
- Allow applications to use pthread_atfork without explicitly
requiring libpthread.so. (#1013801)
- Support `--list-archive FILE' in localedef utility.
- Allow ldconfig cached objects previously marked as hard or soft
ABI to now become unmarked without raising an error. This works
around a binutils bug that caused objects to become unmarked.
(#1009145)
This patch fixes the spec file to use %{_prefix} everywhere that
is related to the package and subpackages. However, external
utilities are still referenced by their absolute path which
includes /usr.
The `Move to /usr' transition for glibc can not be completed
without support from RPM. There are too many Requires that
explicitly reference non-/usr paths in various spec files.
Reverting this patch is the only way forward until we find
a transitional way to support this.
All relevant files are not installed to /usr, with the expectation
that the distribution will provide compatibility links from the
old paths to the new paths. All uses of a bare `/usr' have been
replaced with uses of `%{_prefix}' for files installed by the
package.
